NEW GAME TYPE: 2 on 1 games CHALLENGE: ANY FLAWS?

Koronna · Post by **Koronna** » Tue Aug 07, 2007 1:33 pm

Suggestion: a game type when 2 people can challenge one player to a match

Specifics
Territories:
20% neutral
20% team player A
20% Team player B
40% The ONE

Turns:
1 Team Player A
The ONE
Team Player B
(repeat)
OR
2. The ONE
Team Player A
Team Player B
(repeat)
OR
3. Team PLayer B
THe ONE
Team Player A
(repeat)
OR
4. The ONE
Team Player B
Team PLayer A

Points:
The ONE wins: (Team PLayer A points +Team PLayer B points) / The ONE points * 20
The ONE loses:(Team PLayer A points +Team PLayer B points) / The ONE points * 20 DIVIDED BY 2 to each player

Creating a Game
The creator of the game will be the ONE, and two empty slots will be for the Team PLayers.

I think the turn order for 2v1 would need to be.

Team Member A
The One
Team Member B
The One
[repeat]

or

The One
Team Member A
The One
Team Member B
[repeat]

i agree, the turns will be treated as if in a teams game.

a similar idea to this came up a little while ago - sounds good.

that was my 3v1 idea, which was a bit different. However from that thread I doubt this new game option will be implemented

lol thats right - i supported your idea as well.

i played a triples game the other day when a guy on my team deadbeated. We were in a bad way but made a wonderful comback. Its not often you get the chance to do this and these games would give you the opporunity.

hm...I think this suggestion will work, because it solves many problems with your original 3v1 idea: balance. 2v1 will be much more balanced than 3v1, solving many of the cards, turns, bonus problems etc

I have come up with a set of rules for this new game type (learning from misterman10

), hope you can help me find any flaws in the plan or support!

You should have whoever started the game be the 1, otherwise, cooks are going to team up & trap newbies.

I agree Order should be based on team..
Essentially Team 1 (The one ) then Team 2 - 1 player Repeat

On a side note and it probably will never happen but i would like to see... 9 players... 3 teams of 3 or better 12 4 teams of 3 or 3 teams of 4

I believe this would give the ONE too much advantage, this was discussed in misterman10's original plan....

Lackattack is currently working on 4 v 4 games, but haven't heard of 3 v3 v3 ....sounds good

And personally I see no reason why this type shouldn't be implented, unless there's a fatal problem, which hasn't been brought up yet.

I think that it might also be worthwhile to have a block in place to prevent New Recruits from creating these games, otherwise they will more than likely get taken advantage of in the end.

For right now, 9 player games won't be on the radar. We first have to find the right colors to display the additional two players if 8 player games are ever added.
